A close up of a blue jay with a peanut in the shell in it's beak. The blue jay is facing the camera straight on, with it's head turned to the right and has tiny new feathers coming in on it's head, otherwise it looks pretty bald. It's perched on a deck railing with many peanuts in front of it, with a blurred green background.
